1) I've had suspension clonks for a while and mentioned to the dealer, but this time I mentioned that I thought the front right shock was leaking. They told me both are leaking and will replace under warranty as soon as they get the parts. They managed to find one side, but not the other and had to order from Germany.

2) My EPC warning light has been intermittent (comes on about once a month) and has been diagnosed by the dealer twice before with Audi's tech line. Having previously replaced a sensor they now say the intake manifold has to be replaced per Audi and parts had to be ordered.

Here is the interesting bit: I happened to speak with the tech when I picked up my car and he said "there is a tsb available for this issue but it has not been published yet". There has been a software update released related to this issue which my car already had. No doubt we'll hear more on this in the future.

Good idea to have them do some carbon/gunk cleaning on the valves if they offer the serivce while they have the intake manifold off. I think they charged me around $150 for it, but you can search for my post about it if you want to know the exact amount.

I've never had any problems with McDonald to this point...

Good point on the valve cleaning. I'll remember to mention that when the parts come in.
